THEATER NEWS by Francis Lewis

“The summer’s flower is to the summer sweet” in Central Park.

Jonathan Pryce’s Shylock wants his “pound of flesh.” There’s “Something Rotten!” on Broadway. Shakespeare in print

“Fair is foul, and foul is fair” in “Sleep No More.”

Brush Up Your Shakespeare The Bard of Avon has been dead for 400 years, yet he’s more alive than ever this month in NYC. Go figure, and then go see Jonathan Pryce as Shylock in the Shakespeare’s Globe production of “The Merchant of Venice,” July 20-24 (The Rose Theater, Time Warner Center, Broadway, at W. 60th St., 212.721.6500). “All the world’s a stage,” the playwright famously opined, and nowhere more than in New York. For example, “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” casts its spell July 7-24 in a parking lot (114 Norfolk St., shakespeareintheparkinglot.com), while an immersive take on “Macbeth” invites mask-wearing audiences to “Sleep No More” at The McKittrick Hotel (530 W. 27th St., 866.811.4111). Elsewhere, three city parks offer free performances of more great Shakespeare: In Marcus Garvey Park, the Classical Theatre of Harlem gives an Ethiopian spin to the “Scottish play,” aka

“Macbeth,” July 8-31 (enter the park at Fifth Ave. and 124th St., cthnyc.org); in Midtown, Bryant Park becomes the Forest of Arden for “As You Like It,” July 21-23 (btw W. 40th and W. 42nd sts., btw Fifth and Sixth aves., drillingcompany.org); and in Central Park’s Delacorte Theater, the Trojan War tragically unfolds in “Troilus and Cressida,” July 19-Aug. 14 (enter at Central Park W. and W. 81st St., publictheater.org). Before “Troilus and Cressida,” stroll through CP’s exquisite Shakespeare Garden (centralparknyc.org). Or check out the exhibition “First Folio! The Book That Gave Us Shakespeare” at the New-York Historical Society thru July 17 (170 Central Park W., 212.873.3400). Finally, jester that he was, the Bard would surely appreciate the joke in the Broadway musical “Something Rotten!” (St. James Theatre, 246 W. 44th St., 877.250.2929), which portrays him as a sexy, narcissistic Elizabethan rock star in very tight black leather. What a piece of work this man was—and still is!

WHAT’S TRENDING ON THE FOODIE SCENE by Lois Levine

American Cut (109 E. 56th St., 212.388.5277) has consistently made the “best of” lists for NYC steak houses since opening in TriBeCa in 2013. Now, Midtowners can swoon over the 40ounce porterhouse steaks and the huge, glam space on 56th Street. If you are a fan of Italy’s Piedmont region, check out the fare at San Carlo Osteria Piemonte (90 Thompson St., 212.625.1212): The restaurant name is a mouthful, but, then again, so is the ratatouille. One of the most romantic things I’ve done recently (even though—sigh—I was with my publisher) is enjoy a sublime breakfast, with soft music playing and a stellar view of Lower Manhattan, at Brooklyn’s River Café (1 Water St., DUMBO, Brooklyn, 718.522.5200). I am not a fan of tea (java has always been my thing). So why did I fall in love with Bosie Tea Parlor (10 Morton St., 212.352.9900)? For starters, its new lunch and dinner menu, with wild salmon cakes, creamy avocado toast and an addictive roast cauliflower in a faux cheese sauce (made with cashews). And, yes, the teas and pastries (macarons galore!) are also worth the trip. Want to be swept away with a Parisian experience while in New York? La Gamelle (241 Bowery, 212.388.0052) is the textbook definition of a French bistro. Case in point: antique chairs, wood-trimmed mirrors, a zinc bar and dishes such as steak frites, moules frites, duck confit, escargots and oeufs “mayonnaise.” Ooh-la-la!

The Beauty of Organization

Many stylish travelers lament the challenge of packing their beauty kits. Fortunately, Dollup Beauty has found a way to keep your cosmetics organized and protected with its makeup case, available at Alcone. The luxe clutch features an interior foldout mirror; elastic loops to secure brushes, mascara and lipstick; and a magnetic sheet that locks pans of blush and eye shadow in place. The paperback-book-size box easily slips into a purse for on-the-go touch-ups. | Alcone, 322 W. 49th St., 212.757.3734

Dinner on Safari The works of artist and naturalist Robert Dallet come to life on Carnets d’Équateur, the new porcelain service from Hermès. Many of the gold-rimmed plates, platters, bowls, teacups and trays showcase both Dallet’s delicate early sketches and his hyperrealistic finished work in a beautiful, earthy color palette. Featured animals include the Bengal tiger (above), Amazon parrot, spider monkey, macaw and ocelot, set in contemplative, lush scenes. | Hermès, 691 Madison Ave., 212.751.3181

Minimalist Heaven

FASCINATING ART DISPLAYS by Terry Trucco

Pivotal Decade

Multitalented

Was there anything Harry Bertoia (1915–1978) couldn’t make? The prolific Italian-born polymath did it all—sculptures that emit sounds, the iconic “Diamond” chair and deceptively simple jewelry like this brooch (above, ca. 1945). Two shows—“Bent, Cast & Forged” and “Atmosphere for Enjoyment”—celebrate his sweeping gifts. | Museum of Arts and Design, 2 Columbus Circle, 212.299.7777, thru Sept. 25

In the early 1950s, painter Philip Guston (1913–1980) abandoned social realism for Abstract Expressionism. But while New York School contemporaries like Clyfford Still and Barnett Newman reveled in abstract art for the rest of their days, Guston was just passing through. Rich, rigorous and beautifully conceived, “Philip Guston: Painter, 1957–1967” traces the artist’s journey from pure abstract painting to the black line drawings that unleashed the cartoony, groundbreaking figurative works of his late career. The show thrills. In paintings like “Fable II” (below, 1957), we see the first hints of figures, dark and ominous, emerging through radiant color fields. | Hauser & Wirth, 511 W. 18th St., 212.790.3900, thru July 29

Hyperreal China’s Angst

For insights into how seismic economic and social changes have affected China’s thirtysomethings, consult this smart survey of Beijing artist Cao Fei’s exquisitely imagined multimedia work. Informed by social commentary, pop aesthetics and Surrealism, Cao’s films, sculptures and photographs like “Plant Contest” (above, 2000) help demystify China’s modern malaise. | MoMA PS1, 22-25 Jackson Ave., Long Island City, Queens, 718.784.2084, thru Aug. 31

In his series “Until the Kingdom Comes,” Simen Johan photographs wildlife, but forget National Geographic. A maestro of digital manipulation, Johan questions the reality of nature by transplanting candid shots of untamed beasts in cinematically imagined landscapes. Consider the San Diego Zoo zebra relocated to the stripy wilds of Florida and Bali in “Untitled #181” (left, 2015). | Yossi Milo Gallery, 245 10th Ave., 212.414.0370, thru Aug. 10

THE AFTER-DARK SCENE by Joni Sweet

Industry Hangout

Bartenders and chefs have flocked to West Village cocktail bar Employees Only since the early 2000s. Why? Great service, incredible drinks and endearing traditions, like chicken soup served after last call, make the place feel like home. Now, EO is on a mission to bring its distinctive brand of nightlife to the global stage, with plans to open branches in Miami Beach, Austin and Singapore later this year. For now, make a point to stop by the original joint, where you can watch bartenders in white chef jackets free pour cocktails (like the Billionaire Cocktail, left: Baker’s Bourbon shaken with fresh lemon juice, grenadine and absinthe bitters) and become part of the EO family. | Employees Only, 510 Hudson St., 212.242.3021

Drinking With Dogs

Beefy Bar

Midnight Snack

Delicious as it is, greasy pizza no longer needs to be your only go-to snack after the bars close. The new late- (and we mean late) night menu from The Regal diner and cocktail bar in Williamsburg boasts just the right amount of salt and fat to satisfy cravings. Indulge in gooey, bubbling macaroni gratin with black truffle, chicken and waffles, eggs Benedict with potato latkes, churro toast with chili-infused chocolate dip, avocado flat bread and steakand-quail-eggs tacos (above) until 4 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday mornings. It’s the perfect blend of after-hours favorites and brunch delights. | The Regal, 163 Hope St., Williamsburg, Brooklyn, 718.388.4626

Come for dinner, stay for a nightcap at Mastro’s Steakhouse in Midtown. The lofty, luxurious restaurant—a favorite among Wall Street bankers and celebrities—creates a lively nightlife atmosphere with a drink menu that ranges from fresh and innovative (like Buddha Belly, below: Lucky Buddha beer, Cherry Heering liqueur, lemonade and a lemon twist) to strong classics. The nightly live cover band will have you dancing off that steak in no time. | Mastro’s Steakhouse, 1285 Sixth Ave., 212.459.1222

LOCL Bar offers a few individual experiences, anchored by a rectangular bar in the center. Near the entrance, visitors sit at wooden tables and chairs near a windowed garage door that opens to let in the breeze. In the back, a sophisticated library invites patrons to an intimate, low-key hangout. Finally, a regal 1920s-inspired piano lounge (below) sets a trendy mood to take in live music and flavorful cocktails. No matter which experience you choose, you’ll be accompanied by the sweet dogs of Upper West Side residents and NYLO Hotel guests. On a recent visit to this dog-friendly bar, I was charmed by at least six friendly, well-behaved pups. | LOCL Bar, 222 W. 77th St., 212.651.3319

SEAN ALMIGHTY Comedian Sean Hayes explains all in “An Act of God.” BY BRIAN SCOTT LIPTON

he path to stardom hasn’t been the easiest for Sean Hayes, but the gifted comic actor has been having the last laugh on his doubters for almost two decades: first, through his multi-award-winning portrayal of the goofy, narcissistic Jack McFarland on the NBC hit sitcom “Will & Grace;” then, earning a Tony Award nomination for his Broadway debut in the musical revival of “Promises, Promises;” and now, returning to the Great White Way in the title role of David Javerbaum’s irreverent comedy “An Act of God,” which he previously performed to great acclaim in Los Angeles and San Francisco. “It was always my dream to be on Broadway; when you see your name up in lights, it’s just awesome,” says 46-year-old Hayes, with utter sincerity. “But I didn’t see coming back to New York as part of the plan when this script was first sent to me. I just knew, after reading two pages, that I had to do it. It was some of the funniest and smartest writing I’ve ever seen. And David writes just like I talk, so I knew it would be the perfect marriage of writer and actor, which is what every actor looks for. And now, it is really the greatest gift to be able to come back to Broadway in something so entertaining.” Playing God hardly seemed to be in the proverbial cards for the Glen Ellyn, Illinois, native, raised by a single mother who struggled with finances while supporting four boys. “My brothers were good at sports. I remember my driver’s education teacher asked me if I was going to play baseball like them, and when I said I was good at classical piano and theater, he had nothing more to say to me,” he says. Still, Hayes found ways to get by during his adolescence. “A lot of the time, I just tried to stay under the radar,” he recalls. “But I was sort of a class clown; in high school, I would purposely trip walking down the hall to make some people laugh. And they thought I was funny. I think there was an illusion that I was popular, but, in reality, I had very few friends outside of school.” It was actually his talent as a pianist, not as a comedian, that first allowed him to move forward in his life. “When I was young, my mom paid for my piano lessons, but after a while she couldn’t afford them. So, I did as

much yard work as I could to pay for them myself,” adds Hayes. In fact, he worked as a classical pianist and music conductor while attending Illinois State University. His theatrical career began at a small company, The Pheasant Run Theatre in St. Charles, Illinois, where he was both musical director and performer. Still, he got his first big break by joining Chicago’s famed Second City, where his comic timing was honed. “The great comics were always a huge inspiration to me,” says Hayes. “I used to watch all of Charlie Chaplin’s movies. Martin Short, Steve Martin, John Ritter, Tom Hanks—I wanted to be like all of them. During the early days of “Saturday Night Live,” I dreamed of having my own sketch show.” While not exactly a sketch show, “An Act of God” is a true acting showcase: a virtual 90-minute monologue in which God instructs the audience about what he really meant when he wrote the Bible and tries to clear up some of the world’s great existential mysteries. “It spoke to me because it found a way to express certain things about religion that I couldn’t do on my own,” says Hayes, who is openly gay (and has been married for two years to longtime companion Scotty Icenogle). “I was raised as a strict Irish Catholic, and the more Catholics I meet who have left the church, the more I realize there’s a kinship among those of us who were traumatized by it. I don’t believe all religion is bad, by the way, and I’m actually fascinated by the subject. I try to see every film and documentary made about [the Catholic religion].” Hayes says he wasn’t initially worried about losing any of his fan base by doing the play. “I was far more interested in getting the message of this play out than worrying about the audience reaction. I just wanted them to hear it,” he notes. “And what’s happened is a lot of people came who had no idea what to expect and told me they were pleasantly surprised. And secondly, I got the best reviews of my life, which makes me happy.”

Yes, Hayes is the rare actor who not only reads reviews, but admits it. “I read them all. I may not take what they say about my work seriously, because I have to keep going every night. And I’ve never really learned anything about acting by reading them. But I am interested in how reviews influence ticket buyers and affect a show’s business.” For all his triumphs, however, Hayes is no stranger to bad reviews. In fact, he’s had little luck in re-creating his TV success since “Will & Grace,” with his 2013 sitcom “Sean Saves the World” being a huge flop. “Whenever anyone asks when I am coming back to TV, I always say, ‘I did, but no one watched.’ The truth is the material wasn’t great, and the train left the station before we ever aired the first episode,” he says. “Today, the options people have for things to watch is expanding at the speed of the universe, so you really have to do something incredibly great.” Does that mean he’s willing to forgo TV for a life in theater—perhaps even another musical? “I don’t think I will ever do another Broadway musical, as much as I loved ‘Promises, Promises,’” he notes. “It is really tough to do something like that, where you’re singing all those songs and acting, eight shows a week. You literally have no other life, and I have too many other things I like to do every day.” Fortunately, Hayes has found a way to come back to Broadway. “I can’t think of a better way to spend the summer in New York, which is a city I love,” he says. “For me, being in New York is not about what great restaurants I can go to, but the chance to be part of a community of the warmest people I know. To be on Broadway is to be surrounded by love and by people who make you laugh. And to my mind, laughter is the greatest gift—both to give and to receive.” IN NEW YORK | JULY 2016 | INNEWYORK.COM

NYC’S CHIC STORES CREATE A GLORIOUS SHOPPING EXPERIENCE. BY MELISSA WALKER SHOPPING MAVENS can find anything and everything in New York, but if you’re seeking a curated experience—a beautiful space, where every item has been carefully selected for the shopper who knows the difference between ordinary and wow—then look no further than these brilliant boutiques. Each has a welcoming vibe and edited and refined wares. They do the legwork, you do the buying. Owner-buyer Jade Lai brought her celebrated LA boutique Creatures of Comfort (205 Mulberry St., 212.925.1005) to New York and found a 2,500-squarefoot space in Little Italy for her collection of fashion, furni-

ture, art, housewares and lovely little things. “When conceiving the space, I really wanted it to have a feel of an art gallery combined with artist studio: open and bright,” says Lai, who also curates the collection as if the store were a museum. “We literally look at thousands of items every season—what we end up selecting are the ones that stand out from the rest.” This summer that includes feminine swimwear with strong lines from Lisa Marie Hernandez, flirty dresses from the Creatures of Comfort collection, comfortable Ancient Greek Sandals and unisex sunglasses from Newman.

A few blocks away in SoHo, Totokaelo (54 Crosby St., 844.868.6523) stands five stories high and measures 8,400 square feet, and the space manages to be both inviting and comfortable with its central atrium grounded by built-in bookshelves and potted greenery. The Totokaelo mission, according to founder/CEO Jill Wenger, “is to encourage people to dress distinctly and intentionally.” To that end, you’ll find high-end favorites like Vetements and Junya Watanabe bumping hangers with less-known but also great labels like The Lake & Stars and Anndra Neen. Throw in a pretty terrace and iPhone chargers in the dressing rooms, and you may never want to leave. Over in Murray Hill, a neighborhood not traditionally known for its shopping status, you’ll find the epitome of luxury boutiques. Rei Kawakubo is the founder of the Japanese fashion label Commes des Garçons, and she does everything big. Dover Street Market’s third location (160 Lexington Ave., 646.837.7750), after London and Tokyo, covers seven floors and 22,000 square feet dedicated to Kawakubo’s vision. “I want to create a kind of market, where various creators from various fields gather together and encounter each other in an ongoing atmosphere of

beautiful chaos,” she has said. The store changes its look entirely twice a year in an event it calls “New Beginning,” where, for example, giant displays of wintry ice cream cones are swapped out in favor of summery florals. What doesn’t change is the commitment to luxury brands like Louis Vuitton and Prada, which have offered exclusives to the store, and the inclusion of up-and-comers, Kawakuboapproved, of course. Turn to Story (144 10th Ave., 212.242.4853) for a fully themed experience that changes every couple of months. Recent Stories include the Pepsi-sponsored “Have Fun!” which featured colorful, pop-culture-inspired wares like emoji cookies by Eleni’s, bold printed leggings from Terez and a temporary Tattly tattoo parlor. “Feel Good,” in partnership with Cigna, sold health-themed items like the Closca collapsible bike helmet and artisan-minded foodstuffs, plus shoppers could enjoy a guided meditation booth and a night of stand-up comedy in the store. Think of Story as a brick-and-mortar shop with the thematic point of view of a magazine and the rotating inventory of a gallery. “The store design and merchandise assortment are always and exclusively driven by the editorial frame-

work that we use for each Story,” says Jenny Shechtman, chief operating officer. “A design’s authenticity to that framework is the benchmark for our decision-making.” Grounded in timeless elegance with dashes of modernity—like the geometric black-and-white marble entry floor—Fivestory New York (18 E. 69th St., 212.288.1338) is a two-story boutique uptown. The inventory includes clothing and accessories for women that are playful and witty while maintaining a chic air. “The store is about luxury, but one that comes naturally and has an ease and comforting quality to it,” says owner Claire Distenfeld. “I’m

always looking for clothing that is not based in a trend but has a foreverness to it.” Key pieces this summer include the Cult Gaia bamboo bag, Les Bonbons drop-ball earrings, a Pepa Pombo signature knitwear collection and the striking, backless Rosie Assoulin Flower Stamp top. Across the East River, Camilla Gale—co-owner of the Brooklyn boutique Thistle & Clover (221 Dekalb Ave., Brooklyn, 718.855.5577) with her friend, Rand Niederhoffer—says she chooses pieces that are “both timely and timeless” for her Fort Greene shop. This season, they’re stocking Ace & Jig’s hope tank in “sunkissed,” and Katrin

Reifeiss’ hand-printed accessories. When asked how she knows what to buy for the shop, she adds, “it’s a gut feeling.” Thistle & Clover hosts a quarterly open call for new designers to show their stuff, and some have been selling at Thistle & Clover for many years now. Items found at M.A.E. (461 Seventh Ave., Brooklyn, 718.788.7070), a boutique in Park Slope, Brooklyn, look like you’ve owned them forever—in a good way. Strong designer pieces with a vintage feel pepper the store, which is a consignment shop featuring hand-selected women’s accessories and clothing dating from the 1960s to last season.

“I worked in high-end retail for 20 years, so many of the pieces I get are from former clients and co-workers: The rest come from customers I’ve acquired over the years,” says owner Marci Dixon. “I’m all about a well-curated, easy-to-sort-through shop. I want people to have fun shopping and not feel like I’m giving them a chore to find something amazing.” This summer, “something amazing” includes rompers and saddlebags, which have been flying out of the store. “Everything is in excellent condition,” she adds. “Most of our inventory is designer, but if a cool vintage piece without a label comes in, we won’t pass it up.” IN NEW YORK | JULY 2016 | INNEWYORK.COM

SUMMER IN THE CITY is great for visiting families: balmy weather, long days, myriad cultural and sporting events. But even in the greatest city on earth, traveling with kids poses challenges. They may be tired of museums, overwhelmed by crowds or simply want a respite with people their own size. Among Manhattan’s dozens of venues, museums, parks and playgrounds for children, these six spots are some of our favorites for the kiddie crowd. Here, a cheat sheet for where to go with toddlers, elementary school children and even tweens: Whimsy meets technology at The Battery’s SeaGlass Carousel (State St. & Water St., 212.344.3491), a nautilusinspired merry-go-round powered by hidden electric motors. Each of the carousel’s 30 handmade fish is a beautiful sculpture, engineered in steel and fiberglass and illuminated by LED lights. Designed to mimic the feeling of swimming under water, the carousel has “water effect” light projectors and plays soothing classical music. Children under 42 inches tall are required to ride on an adult’s lap. The carousel is part of The Battery, a 25-acre public expanse with great views of the Statue of Liberty, passing ships and plenty of grassy lawns for energetic toddlers or family picnics. Open daily, 10 am-10 pm; tickets are $5. Rabbits, chinchillas, turtles, oh my. For 14 years, Valentina Van Hise has been running the city’s only eco-friendly indoor petting zoo and art activity space, and if you’re staying on the Upper East Side, it’s a great rainy day option. Geared to ages 6 months to 9 years old, The Art Farm in the City (419 E. 91st St., 646.912.8094) offers daily drop-in sessions. Here, kids can explore arts and crafts, try baking and feed Van Hise’s menagerie of guinea pigs, chickens, birds and lizards. On weekend mornings, The Art Farm hosts toddlers for “Mornings on the Farm”: Attendees get baskets of hay and goodies, and get to feed and snuggle with the animals. Even kids who’ve already been to the American Museum of Natural History (Central Park West, at W. 79th St., 212.769.5100) will be impressed by the museum’s newest addition: the 122-foot-long titanosaur, a dinosaur discovery so new that paleontologists have not yet formally named it. Among marine animals, check out the Milstein Hall of Ocean Life’s 94-foot-long, 21,000-pound model of a blue whale suspended from the ceiling. At the museum’s Hayden Planetarium inside the Rose Center for Earth and Space, aspiring astronomers will want to take in a screening of the Hayden Planetarium’s “Dark Universe,” narrated by astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson.

wanting a break from the galleries, the museum’s Discovery Room, aimed at kids ages 5–12, has interactive features like real-time earthquake tracking, fossil handling and mineral collecting. On weekends, scientists at The Sackler Educational Lab for Comparative Genomics and Human Origins host family-friendly projects on paleoanthropology, primatology, genetics and neuroscience. An old-fashioned amusement park tucked into Central Park, Victorian Gardens (enter the Park at W. 59th St. & Sixth Ave., 212.982.2229) has rides that appeal to a wide range of ages. Younger kids—and squeamish adults—can try the Mini Mouse, a gentle roller coaster, or the Convoy, a ride made up of classic roadsters. Daredevils and older kids tend to favor the Kite Flyer, a fast ride in a prone position (do this before lunch). For great views of Central Park and the surrounding buildings, try the high-flying Aeromax. On hot days, the Hydro Racer and Bumper Boats are a good, slightly wet way to cool down. Just a little north of Victorian Gardens, and popular with tourists and locals alike, the Central Park Zoo (enter the park at 64th St. & Fifth Ave., 212.439.6500) offers an intimate scale for animal lovers. Famous for its thrice-daily sea lion feedings, the zoo recently added Betty and Veronica, a pair of rescued grizzly bears taking the spot where the late polar bear Gus held court for decades. For younger kids, the Tisch Children’s Zoo, a zoo within a zoo, has the only cow in Manhattan, as well as opportunities to feed sheep, potbellied pigs and goats. If you’re not too hot, head to the Tropic Zone, which is designed to replicate a tropical rain forest, filled with dozens of birds, reptiles, mammals and even piranhas. Downtown, the Children’s Museum of the Arts (103 Charlton St., 212.274.0986) treats all kids, from toddlers to teens, like artists. There’s a popular clay bar, where kids can sit and sculpt (but get there early; in true Manhattan fashion, spots are limited); a “swirling” studio; a media lab, where kids can animate short films; and a sound booth. Children under age 5 can check out the WEE Arts early childhood studio, which is open for weekday drop-in sessions; more advanced artists can use the Fine Arts Studio. This month, CMA embraces French culture, with a kiddiecentric July 14 Bastille Day celebration featuring French artists and workshops, and a July 17 French cultural festival with hands-on art making and performances. The following week, on July 24, CMA partners with the New York Botanical Garden in the Bronx to host drop-in workshops for children. Near the Flatiron Building, The LEGO Store (200 Fifth Ave., 212.255.3217) has 3,500 square feet of building possibilities, including walls of bright colors and a graffiti-inspired mural made completely out of LEGO bricks. Young builders can find inspiration in the mini-models builder bar. A bonus for families: The store is across the street from Madison Square Park, where you can grab a meal for the family at Shake Shack, enjoy a lovely playground and possibly see a kids’ music concert (madisonsquarepark.org).

During your New York visit, you may get a hankering for some surf and sand. Cue the Rockaways in Queens, a laid-back, beachy neighborhood, less than an hour’s subway ride from Manhattan. In addition, the NYC Beach Bus (nycbeachbus .com) offers direct runs from Union Square, Williamsburg and Downtown Brooklyn to Far Rockaway and nearby Jacob Riis Park for $15 round-trip. They’ll even give you a complimentary beer to enjoy during the trip and rent out beach chairs and umbrellas for a small fee.

DRINK Check out Connolly’s Bar (155 Cross Bay Pkwy., 718.474.2374), an oldschool dive bar that excels in piña coladas. For a good beer and surfer-watching, it’s the Low Tide Bar (Beach 96th St.) on the boardwalk. At the adults-only Playland Motel (playlandmotel.com), enjoy Happy Hour, complete with bean bag toss, dancing and great cocktails.

some 20 different food stands on hand at the Beach Bazaar at Riis Park, where you can score a pulled pork sandwich from Fletcher’s Brooklyn Barbeque or chicken shawarma from Samesa. It’s also worth walking a few blocks inland to eat.
